Houston Texans impending free agent defensive back A.J. Bouye will be the "clear king" of the cornerback class, according to Monday Morning Quarterback's Albert Breer.
Bouye is coming off a spectacular third-year campaign and he should be able to command more on the open market than the five-year, $62.5-million deal that Janoris Jenkins received last March. After opening the year fourth on the Texans' depth chart, the 25-year-old corner went on to deflect a career-high 16 passes and wound up emerging as one of the up-and-coming stars in the league. Head coach Bill O'Brien has said the team would like Buoye to be back in Houston next season.
The Texans came in sixth in opponent-adjusted Defensive Passing Net Expected Points allowed per play in 2016.
